Looks like they were used across the board from 55 to 58, PN 1253 425, 5 stud terminal block.

I checked old threads and found some photos and links but the links are dead.

I found one at the MoparMall, but I am not in the mood to deal with them at the moment. Any other sources?

Enter "Terminal block" or "Junction block" at Google, go to Images and a number of hits show up.

Thanks.

Don't worry Mr. Google is my friend use it multiple times per day.

Unfortunately, every one of the links you provided was for a 6 stud (or 4 or 8) terminal block. None of them advertise 5 studs like the OE.

I know I could rehab my existing terminal block but it would be easier to just swap the wires on to a new block.

I think the original terminal block is butt ugly!

Here is a expensive marine one that has only only 4 terminals, .......but it has a nice cover. They have other cool stuff.

Thanks Marc. I wonder what part of "1956 Dodge Terminal Block" Mr. Google and Mr. eBay didn't understand yesterday.

I've tried to order but Mr. eBay doesn't understand "Free shipping to United States and Canada" and is making me request a new total from the seller.

Seller responded with an invoice that include $0.00 for shipping and I paid it. eBay's happy (but still stupid).

I'm not sure why that search didn't work. I remembered Marcel had some inserts last week, searched that, then went to sellers other items. Got lucky! Strocker470 is an odd ebay name. I can never remember that. Marc.

Thank's for that link Marc. I got my new terminal block from Strocker470 (which I think he probably intended to be Stroker470 except for a French/English issue). Looks good.

With that in mind, I added vacuum caps on the threaded posts yesterday. Understated "bling".
